Charoite is an incredible stone of the Violet Ray with an almost tangible movement of energy flowing in magnificent swirls and eddies of violet,
lavender and purple. It is rare and complex, one of nature’s best dream stones and illuminators,
allowing access to lessons learned in past lives, healing emotional fears to live in the present,
and opening to spiritual guidance for the future.
This stone embodies a unique synthesis between the Crown and Heart Chakras,
bringing high spiritual energy into union with unconditional love from the physical plane,
and grounding it here on Earth where it is needed most. It is a Stone for This Age,
assisting in the here and now…conveying the message that one is exactly where one should be during this moment.
It is a talisman of acceptance and letting go; a “bestower of good,” encouraging service to humanity,
and for attaining approval of the Self. [Melody, 195-196][Hall, 104-105][Simmons, 107][Ahsian, 108]
Discovered in the 1940s, Charoite was unknown to the outside world until 1978.
Its name is derived from the Chara (or Charo) River in eastern Siberia,
Russia, the only site in the world where it is found. The word “Chary” in Russian means “magic” or “charms.”
The term “Charoite Jade” is a trade name for Charoite used in various applications as a decorative stone.
